About Meal POPs
Meal POPs is a technology company that helps people enjoy their favourite restaurant meals more often, by letting restaurants offer standardised monthly cash voucher promotions through the Meal POPs platform.
Small beginnings, big impact
Meal POPs started as a simple way for former at-risk youth in the local community to raise money for advanced educational opportunities, including trade school and community college. At the end of 2018 we supported educational expenses for two students, and in 2019, as the official fundraising sponsor of the Music City Icons professional basketball team, we sent student-athletes to one of Nashville's best summer basketball camps.
Our early success came largely from the support of premier restaurant brands, locally and nationally, which led to partnerships with large membership organisations and trade associations across the country.
Connection through experiences
Our goal is to bring people together more often. By offering sustainable incentives that reduce the average cost of a meal, we create the financial room to dine out more and enjoy the restaurants and dishes people love.
Restaurants as a first thought
Created with the modern restaurateur in mind, Meal POPs gives restaurant partners:
- New customers
- Loyal customers
- Profitable transactions
- Ownership of the customer experience
Who we are
We believe an organisation is incomplete if it lacks diversity, because no single perspective is perfect on its own. Integrity, kindness, empathy and the desire to help others are the attributes we all share.
